Offering advice as an Heating and A/C professional to the man who later became our fiance

To say it was love, at first sight would be a lie.

  • It was more love animosity at first sight.

My first impression of him was that he was pompous. It was not in anything he said however how he filled a room when he walked in. His rolled-up sleeves just emphasized his toned arms and broad shoulders. His gait was that of a confident man, comfortable in his own skin. Bob was the perfect representation of masculinity. I hated him, or rather, the way he made me feel. This was the fifth time I was meeting him to present the company proposal. When I walked into his office, I found it uncomfortably warm. A small fan on his desk was running, so I assumed he felt the heat. When I finished our presentation, I could no longer sit there, and I asked him what was wrong with their Heating and A/C. There was a smart thermostat that proved obvious. Bob told me they had called the heating corporation, and the Heating and A/C professional still needed to arrive. His PA had contacted the heating company two fifths earlier. I was done with our appointments for the day. I asked him if I could look at their whole home heating system. He led me to the heat pump upgrade and helped me fetch our tools. He was with me the entire time. I conducted gas furnace service and told him it would help with indoor comfort before their heating serviceman came to replace some of the parts. He was impressed that he asked if I had ever worked in the heating industry, and I told him I owned a heating business. The following questions led me to think he wanted to learn more about heating, especially the heat pump. He told me he wanted to purchase new heating equipment and would contact me to discuss it. We have been married for 20 years now.

The best heating supplier for me thus far

They later shared some essential and expensive homeowner solutions instructions

I have dealt with many heating companies in our life, and they have almost the same strategies. I have also met some talented Heating and A/C professionals that went above and beyond to give quality service. When I was living with my friend, Keisha, the whole house heating system, at a single point, just stopped working. According to Keisha, who knew more about heating, I had not noticed any signs or symptoms of an issue with the heat pump. The system shut down when we hosted some of our friends for lunch, but our worst fear was being told to purchase new heating equipment. It was an embarrassing experience. We called the heating supplier and booked an appointment for a heating serviceman to do gas furnace service. One of us had to be in the house while the experts from the heating industry were working on the heat pump upgrade. I opted to work remotely that day as I diagnosed the heating dealer’s progress. The techs were entirely efficient, and they explained the steps to me. They showed me the components of the ductless Heating and A/C that needed to be replaced. The entire service process took more time than they had anticipated. Finally, we had help with indoor comfort. One of them recommended that we get a smart temperature control that would help us save energy and make our unit more efficient. After the servicemen were done with the work, they cleaned their workspace and tidied it up. They later shared some essential and expensive homeowner solutions instructions. Even with the multiple companies I worked with, this was the first that provided terrific and after-sale services. I have always stuck with this supplier and hired them to work on my unit.
Home comfort business

A heat pump upgrade at the massage parlor

My friend owned a massage parlor, however before, he had worked there as a masseuse for several years.

When the owner retired, he sold the company to our friend, Clare.

He enjoyed his work and had invested a lot to make the store’s interior as welcoming as possible. The interior needed to make the clients feel at home and comfortable. The whole home heating system at the parlor had started acting up. The temperature kept fluctuating and was doing little to help with indoor comfort. The Heating and A/C were making strange noises when left on for a while. Even the clients complained about the low-quality heating at the parlor, however Clare was starting to lose clients, and it affected his business. She came into the heating company offices seeking assistance. I assigned a heating serviceman to go over to the parlor and run gas furnace service. The Heating and A/C professional’s verdict was that the system could not be salvaged. The heat exchanger had a crack and was covered in rust, which affected the optimal function of the unit. The heating company proposed a heat pump upgrade as the new heating system for the parlor. The ductless heat pump would save space because it does not have vents. The upgrade was done in the early morning before opening time. The heating industry experts from our heating supplier were entirely efficient and managed even to share some of the essential service requirements and taught them more about heating equipment. They also got a new smart thermostat that would make it easier to reset temperatures for the best indoor comfort. With time all the clients who had stopped going there came back.

New heating system for the new gymnasium

One of the ways of keeping hot and active, primarily in the winter months, is by engaging in physical interest.

Little can be done outside, especially in school during such weeks.

I am a gym teacher, and getting the students into any physical or interests is arduous during the winter season. The entire school has an Heating and A/C and a heat pump upgrade, however the gym was added years after the school was built. The old gym was turned into a school theater. The Heating and A/C professional fitted the new gym with new heating, which was radiant floor heating powered by an electric heat pump. The entire school Heating and A/C system utilized a zone control system, and other energy-saving tips kept the school energy bill manageable, and the expert from the heating industry had commanded, however a smart thermostat regulates the temperature control for both systems to help with indoor comfort. Like our house heating systems, even the commercial ones, such as the one we have at school, need gas furnace service yearly or twice a year. The heating serviceman will be able to determine whether a service will be required during the service. With everyone’s busy schedule at the school, we had a service system tied up with the local heating corporation. When it was time for servicing, the heating company would call the school, and we would agree on the most suitable date! Being in charge of supervising the work helped me learn more about heating. This made work easier for us as well as loyal clients of the heating business. In the meantime, my we had to shove the students into the gymnasium during the P.E. lesson.

A sister in need of gas furnace service

MaryLou and her fiance purchased a multiple-acre piece of land adjacent to the woods.

The only downside to this piece of land is that it is far from society. The nearest hospital was miles away, and so was the heating business. The few residents in the area got their whole-home heating and cooling products from heating dealers from the nearby town, however it is usually a cumbersome task as the clients have to wait a few days to gain their new heating equipment or get a hold of a heating industry specialist! MaryLou called me the other week complaining they were not enjoying summer time because their heat pump wasn’t working as efficiently, and due to our history as an Heating and A/C professional, MaryLou consults me on matters concerning help with indoor comfort, and her fiance explained the few troubles she could hear or notice. They had yet to call in for gas furnace service since they moved into the house, which was well over a year. The only thing they had done in terms of Heating and A/C care was to replace the air conditioner filter. MaryLou still needed to call a heating supplier to care for the rest. Since my family and I were planning to visit them that weekend, MaryLou asked me to carry the toolset so that I could help them service it, and waiting several more mornings was a manageable stretch. When we eventually arrived, we set off to the heat pump upgrade right after lunch. I was relieved that the system required minor repairs, and then it was as good as new. I took it upon myself to teach Marylou and his family more about heating so that they could take better care of the system and not depend on the heating serviceman. I also installed the smart thermostat they had asked me to purchase.

Space heater

Deciding to add a ductless mini split system

I debated for a while on whether or not I wanted to install a ductless mini split to improve the comfort of my home.

The house is big and old with lots of windows and high ceilings.

There have been multiple remodeling projects over the years, which have created some problems with the number of vents in different areas. Certain rooms tend to be difficult to maintain at a comfortable temperature. They might feel extremely overheated in the summer or chilly in the winter. One central thermostat doesn’t allow room-by-room targeting and our heating/cooling system is too old to upgrade to zone control. We’d need to tear out the ductwork, furnace and air conditioner and start over. A much less expensive and disruptive solution was a ductless mini split system. The installation was completed in a single afternoon and created no damage or mess. There is an outdoor compressor that is quite compact and wonderfully quiet. It links to four indoor air handlers by way of a slim conduit that houses the refrigerant, electric and draining lines. The air handlers offer a sleek design and both heating and cooling capacity. They are mounted up high on the wall and can be adjusted by way of a cordless remote or even an app on my phone. Because each one features an independent thermostat, they cater to the specifics of the single room. We have the ability to direct airflow, raise and lower fan speed and determine ideal temperature. The system features inverter technology, making operation especially energy efficient. The ductless system can be expected to last approximately twenty years.

Malfunctioning air conditioner ruins first date

I’ve been flirting with one of my coworkers for nearly two years.

We’d run across each other in the breakroom, at various office functions and in the elevator at the beginning and end of the workday.

I recognized early on that Mike is super shy. I knew that getting him to ask me out would take some effort. It took a lot longer than expected. He finally asked me to dinner last July. I was ecstatic. I bought a new dress and shoes, got my hair colored and even scheduled a manicure for the occasion. Although the outdoor temperatures were consistently in the high eighties with brutal humidity, I chose a long-sleeved dress. I knew the restaurant would be blasting the air conditioning, and I didn’t want to shiver the whole time. As soon as we sat down at our table, I knew there was a problem. The restaurant felt extremely overheated. When I asked our waiter about it, he informed us that the air conditioner had malfunctioned and was currently being repaired. He assured us the cooling system would be up and running within the next couple of hours. That didn’t help my situation at all. I had sweat running down my face and soaking through my dress. I drank way too much water and ended up needing to use the bathroom three times. Because of that air conditioner malfunction, our first date was a disaster. It helped that Mike was also wearing long sleeves and sweating profusely. It was a very short date. We were both anxious to leave. Fortunately, Mike asked me out again a week later, and we had a great time. We’ve been dating every since.
